I am going to attempt to upgrade from 1.38a to the latest 1.55f, keeping my products, templates and data.
I have been consulting the document "How do I rebuild my site on the new version, instead of upgrading?":
https://www.zen-cart.com/entry.php?3...d-of-upgrading
So far, I have built a complete copy of my current live site in a separate folder (named 'store_bak') and separate database, to test the upgrade on. I have modified the configure.php files in that folder to have the modified URLs and verified that the copy is indeed referencing only files in the copy folder. It has a copy of the database imported into it, so it's a complete separate copy.
I have used a file comparison tool to identify all modified or additional files in my current site as compared to an original 1.38a set of files.
However, I'm now confused as to what the next step is. Am I supposed to replace all of the 1.38 zencart files in the copy (store_bak) with the 1.55 set of files and then see what happens? And then start trying to reflect my modifications into it?
